 <h2 id="sec-evolution">Evolution and Extension of the University Ontology</h2>
 <p>The University Ontology is just a small example to define an Ontology using RDFa. The goal is to have a prototype of 
    an ontology that enables simple description of Universities and related matters.
 </p>
 
<h2 id="sec-extrefs">External Vocabulary References</h2>

<p>The following vocabularies have been used:</p>
<ul>
	<li><a href="http://vocab.org/aiiso/schema#">(AIISO) Academic Institution Internal Structure Ontology</a></li>
	<li><a href="http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/">(foaf) Friend of a Friend</a></li>
	<li><a href="http://www.w3.org/ns/org#">(org) Organization Ontology</a></li>
</ul>

<h3 id="sec-ack">Acknowledgments</h3>
<p>The use of RDFa to document an ontology is inspired by <a href="http://www.literateprogramming.com/">Literate Programming movement</a>. 
The first template was taken by the Bob Ferris documentation of the <a href="http://purl.org/ontology/olo/core#">Ordered List Ontology</a>.
</p>
<p>The development of this ontology is part of the activities of the <a href="http://purl.org/weso">WESO research group</a></p>
<p>We have received some feedback from the <a href="http://pedantic-web.org/">pedantic web group</a> 
  (<a href="http://richard.cyganiak.de/">Richard Cyganiak</a>, 
   <a href="http://sw.deri.org/~aidanh/">Aidan Hogan</a>, 
   etc.)
   and from members of the CTIC Foundation 
  (<a href="http://dayures.net/">Carlos Tejo</a>,
